1950s Scheurich Speckled Ceramic Vase in Black, Yellow, Blue and Red

Jon Nix — Wed, 26 Oct 2022 20:32:40 +0000

A very attractive and rare 1950s vase made by Scheurich. The exterior features a grey speckled ground, incised stripes in blue, red, and yellow, and a three-sided, slightly irregular, form which is a great example typical of the era. The interior is a contrasing white. Measuring approximately 20cm (8 in.) in height, the vase has a truncated sloping rim, and contrasting hand-decorated wavy gold lines within flat black stripes to complete the look. The makers mark is worn and not readily discernible but we have identified it as a product of Scheurich.

The vase is in very good condition with no chips or cracks - and it would make a stunning addition to a mid-century home or as a statement piece in a more modern environment.

Heavy Vintage Rounded Square Glass Bowl with Smoked Mustard-Orange Gradient

Jon Nix — Mon, 05 Sep 2022 13:41:19 +0000

Weighing in at almost 900g this rounded square bowl is a solidly sculpted piece of glass and certainly an eye-catching piece, possibly from Murano, but this cannot be confirmed with absolute certainty. With its very thick rounded rim in clear glass and its graduated colour which appears almost solid at the base, it interacts with light in very interesting ways. From some angles there's a mustard-like tone to the colour, from other angles it's more of a deep orange-brown, and then again, dark brown hues almost a black tone, takes precedent in the refracted colours. Measuring approximately 18cm (7 in.) square at the rim, and approximately 7.5 cm (3 in.) in height, it makes much more of a statement than its dimensions suggest.

The bowl is in generally good condition. There are some minor grazes and surface scratches throughout but no chips or cracks and there's nothing that immediately catches the eye in a detrimental way. A little stunner, albeit a chunky one!

Vintage 1970s Large Yellow Tonka Crane in Pressed Steel and Plastic

Jon Nix — Sat, 13 Aug 2022 21:01:04 +0000

Another classic design and an iconic brand, Tonka. This is a large yellow Tonka crane in pressed steel and plastic and it's in great condition considering its age and use. There's barely a mark to the paintwork (original, by the way) and stickers are intact on the cab on both sides. A very clean example and these are hard to come by now. There are some things to note - it's missing its string and hook but that could be easily remedied depending on what the ultimate use of the crane is going to be. We had envisaged it perhaps being turned into a lamp base for a man-cave, but we'll now leave that up to the next guardian to determine. We will include a length of suitable cord and a Meccano hook (not the original Tonka one, but very similar) should that be the buyer's choice - just let us know :)

It's also very very slightly awry at the front where the left headlight should sit inside the grille section. It's barely noticeable, but it deserves to be pointed out. These minor defects aside, this is an incredibly well-presented survivor and a great example of the type.

Vintage Yellow Gooseneck Desk or Bedside Lamp Perforated Shade

Jon Nix — Fri, 08 Jul 2022 13:26:07 +0000

Sometimes attributed to Hala Zeist, though more likely a variation on the Maclamp model TL33, this iconic-shaped desk or bedside lamp features a perforated conical shade and brass gooseneck. Dating from the 1970s, it is presented in a yellow tone and is in good condition with only minor signs of wear and tear. The shade, perforated in two places (stars near the open end and circular holes near the closed rear), is notable in that it has retained a very good shape. The circular base houses a centrally located simple on-off push switch in black and white. An uncommon lamp, in an unusual colour, and in very presentable condition to boot.

The lamp measures approximately 38cm (15 in.) high with the neck fully extended, the neck itself is about 26cm (10 in.) in length, and the lamp base is approximately 13cm (5 in.) in diameter.

Swatch Twin Phone – Transparent Orange with Yellow Accents

Jon Nix — Thu, 27 May 2021 19:13:40 +0000

Yes, Swatch made telephones as well as watches, and yes, this telephone really does have all the Swatch hallmarks. The coloured transparent body with colourful accents and sleek styling is *exactly* what you'd expect. The Swatch Twin Phone is not only a "looker" though, it also had a rather novel twist: as the name implies the telephone could be used by two people on the same call, with the handset and the body of the telephone both featuring ear and mouthpieces! This model has a deep orange (almost red) body with bright cyan and yellow accents. So 80s, or what?!

Whether you use it as a replacement landline telephone or simply marvel at the design on a shelf or side table, the Swatch Twin Phone will surely turn heads.

This one has not been function-tested and comes without its original box, but it is in excellent condition.

Pair of Vintage German Striped Brown Jasba Vases Pattern 108/22

Jon Nix — Wed, 07 Oct 2020 19:49:12 +0000

An unusual opportunity to purchase a pair of matching form 108/22 Jasba Keramik matching vases. These German-made vases feature a glossy brown (almost maroon) glaze with a multi-coloured pattern of stripes in various tones of pink, green, orange, yellow and white. It would appear to be a variation on the "Bamberg" pattern. The vases, with their gold rims and bases, have more than a slightly "glam" look to them and date back to the late 1950s. The price is for the pair, but consideration will be given to splitting them.

In good condition with no chips or cracks. There is wear to the gold rims but this is not immediately obvious given the glossy nature of the finish overall. The vases are 22cm (9 in.)in height with a rim diameter of 7cm (2¾ in.), a maximum diameter of 10cm (4 in.), and base diameter of 7cm (2¾ in.).

Wells Brimtoy Tinplate and Plastic Toy Cider Lorry Friction Drive

Jon Nix — Tue, 15 Sep 2020 14:08:27 +0000

A very collectable and colourful Wells Brimtoy Bedford cider lorry in tinplate and plastic. This is the friction-drive version of the toy and the mechanism is in pretty good shape, though could undoubtedly benefit from a clean and oil. The orange and yellow body of the truck is in very good, though aged, condition and the lorry's axles and wheels are good. There are some signs of surface rusting to the metal underside of the lorry, but nothing serious and certainly nothing that couldn't be gently cleaned off

A cute gift for the cider drinker perhaps or as a decorative bar item, or for the collector of either Wells Brimtoy toys specifically or of toy vehicles in general. It's a good example. The lorry measures about 8cm (3¼ in.) long, about 5.5cm (2¼ in.) at its highest and 4cm (1½ in.) wide.
